Great fab skills! Anyone can bolt on parts made for your car but fabbing them as you go and ending up with a finished product like that, excellent! ---

very nice build \<3 the sound of anti lag, it triggers a nice chain of events… makes me think of rally, then the smell of race gas, then watching rally cars fly down a dirt path at retarded speeds, then getting into the afterparty, beer, irish dudes, more beer, not sleeping/blackout period, drive back home (well passenger), barfing in some random gas station. awesome. ---
